Conventional building central cooling plants, comprising water-cooled chillers, air handling units (AHUs), cooling towers, and pumps, often suffer fouling issues caused by accumulation of suspended solids in the micron range, such as rust and corrosion scale, as well as dissolved minerals within the chilled water closed loop system. Over time, these impurities clog strainers and nozzles, foul heat exchangers, and impair heat transfer efficiency, resulting in turbid water and reduced cooling performance. In condenser water open loop systems, untreated or ineffectively treated water further cause abrasion and leakage in condenser copper tubes, leading to system downtime and costly maintenance. To address these challenges, this invention introduces an effective and energy-efficient cleaning and filtration system that continuously filters blackish and rusty chilled water, returning cleaner and clearer water to the chilled water closed loop system. By leveraging existing water pressure without requiring an external pump or additional electricity, the system restores water clarity and operational efficiency, leading to: Reduced cooling energy consumption Enhanced occupant comfort and wellbeing Significant reduction in water usage for system cleaning Lower operational costs, carbon footprint, and emissions Alignment with the “Go 25°C” National Movement led by the Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC) The technology owner seeks collaboration with building owners, facility managers, main contractors, chiller and cooling tower manufacturers and suppliers, and energy service companies (ESCOs) to explore integration in new developments and retrofit applications.

This technology offer presents a nano-formulated iron supplement designed to enhance nutrient uptake and improve plant growth efficiency. Using nano-sized iron particles, the formulation increases iron solubility and bioavailability, ensuring faster absorption through plant roots and foliage. Iron is essential for chlorophyll production, photosynthesis, and metabolic enzyme activities. In many soils, especially alkaline or calcareous soils, iron becomes unavailable, leading to yellowing leaves and reduced growth. The formulation overcomes this challenge by delivering iron in a stable, highly absorbable form that maintains plant greenness, increases leaf development, and enhances overall plant vigor. Field trials on Brazilian spinach demonstrated up to 82% increase in plant height, broader leaf formation, and healthier coloration compared to untreated controls. The technology owner is open to further co-development and field validation through multi-site trials, data sharing, and performance benchmarking across various soil types and crops.

An Adsorption Heat Pump (AHP) is a thermally driven heating and cooling system that operates through the physical adsorption of a refrigerant onto a solid adsorbent material. Unlike conventional vapor-compression systems that rely on mechanical energy, AHPs are powered by low-grade thermal energy sources such as waste heat, solar thermal energy, or biomass, offering a highly energy-efficient and environmentally sustainable alternative. Using environmentally safe solid adsorbents such as silica gel, zeolite, or activated carbon, and natural refrigerants like water or ammonia, the system functions through a cyclic adsorption–desorption process. During adsorption, refrigerant vapor adheres to the solid adsorbent, releasing heat for heating purposes. In the desorption phase, heat is applied to the adsorbent, releasing the refrigerant vapor, which then condenses to produce cooling. By tapping into waste or renewable heat sources, AHPs significantly reduce electricity consumption and carbon emissions, making them ideal for decentralized and off-grid applications. They are particularly effective in settings where electricity is limited or costly, or where waste heat is abundantly available. Although AHPs typically exhibit lower coefficients of performance (COP) than conventional systems and may require more installation space, their energy efficiency, sustainability, safety, and long lifespan make them a compelling choice for green and circular energy systems. This technology is available for R&D collaboration and IP licensing with industrial partners including data centers, refrigeration equipment manufacturers, and energy solution providers.

Stress, fatigue, and cognitive decline are growing concerns in Singapore. Younger adults often experience anxiety, insomnia, and difficulty focusing, while older adults face a higher risk of memory loss and cognitive decline. By 2030, one in four Singaporeans will be aged 65 or above, highlighting the need for accessible ways to support cognitive health. Many adults rely on supplements to maintain cognitive performance, but these are often perceived as medicinal and unnatural. With 60% of consumers in the Asia Pacific region viewing mental well-being as central to health, the market for brain health foods and beverages is expanding rapidly, projected to reach USD 40.34 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 10.5%, highlighting a significant opportunity for enjoyable and familiar cognitive-supporting food products. This technology call therefore seeks proven cognitive ingredients and enabling technologies that improve ingredient stability, efficacy, and incorporation into foods and beverages. 

Polyoxymethylene (POM) is a high-performance engineered thermoplastic widely used in the automotive, electronics, and industrial sectors due to its excellent mechanical strength, chemical resistance, and dimensional stability. However, its conventional production relies heavily on formaldehyde derived from fossil-based methanol, presenting significant sustainability and carbon footprint challenges. Amid growing environmental concerns and global net-zero commitments, carbon dioxide (CO₂) utilisation is emerging as a promising approach for transforming waste carbon into value-added materials. Among various CO₂-derived chemicals, methanol stands out as a viable and sustainable feedstock, offering a low-carbon alternative to traditional petrochemical-based inputs. To advance circular economy goals and reduce reliance on fossil resources, a Singapore-based SME is seeking innovative and scalable technologies that can convert CO₂-derived methanol into POM or its intermediates such as formaldehyde or trioxane. Proposed solutions may include end-to-end pathways using commercially viable CO₂-derived methanol to produce POM, or novel routes that directly convert CO₂ into POM through intermediate steps.

In 2023, Singapore generated approximately 755,000 tonnes of food waste, with only 18% recycled, underscoring the urgent need for innovative waste management strategies. The nation's Zero Waste Master Plan have significantly propelled efforts to transform food waste into valuable resources. Food waste valorisation involves pre-processing steps like drying, microbial fermentation, or enzymatic breakdown into biomass which can convert nutrients into suitable ingredients for animal feed, food ingredients and biofuels.  A significant technical challenge arises for companies handling heterogeneous municipal food waste in Singapore due to its high oil content. The presence of oil may potentially lead to fouling, clogging of processing equipment, reducing processing efficiency. On the contrary, oil is also a valuable ingredient for biofuel. Therefore, the company is seeking for solution providers who can de-oil from the biomass.

According to the Health Promotion Board (HPB) in Singapore, 90% of Singapore residents' consumption of sodium exceeds the daily recommended intake, with the average consumption at 3620 mg, nearly double of the recommended 2000 mg per day. As a result, one in six Singapore residents report health problems like hypertension and hypolipidaemia. In an effort to curb this, HPB launched the "Less Salt, More Taste" campaign in 2024 to encourage the food manufacturing and food service industry to change their recipes and add less salt and sauces, or switch to use lower-sodium alternatives for salt, sauces and seasonings. Manufacturers are also encouraged to increase the supply of lower-sodium ingredients for the food service sector. Consumers are also encouraged to choose low sodium options, or use less salt in their home cooking. This sodium reduction strategy aims to reduce Singaporeans’ sodium intake by 15% by 2026.
